m3_get_mort_o3_ecoloss

Description

Produce economic damages associated with premature mortality attributable to O3 (M6M) exposure based on the IER functions from Jerret et al (2009), consistent with the GBD 2016 study. The economic valuation takes as a base value the widely accepted Value of Statistical Life (VSL) of the OECD for 2005. This value, according to the literature ranges between US$1.8 and $4.5 million. The calculations for all regions are based on the “unit value transfer approach” which adjusts the VSL according to their GDP and GDP growth rates. (Markandya et al 2018)

Usage

m3_get_mort_o3_ecoloss(
  db_path,
  query_path,
  db_name,
  prj_name,
  scen_name,
  final_db_year = 2100,
  mort_param = "mort_o3_gbd2016_med",
  Damage_vsl_range = "Damage_vsl_med",
  ssp = "SSP2",
  queries,
  saveOutput = T,
  map = F,
  anim = T
)

Arguments

db_path

Path to the GCAM database

query_path

Path to the query file

db_name

Name of the GCAM database

prj_name

Name of the rgcam project. This can be an existing project, or, if not, this will be the name

scen_name

Name of the GCAM scenario to be processed

final_db_year

Final year in the GCAM database (this allows to process databases with user-defined "stop periods")

mort_param

Select the health function (GBD 2016 or Jerret et al 2009) and the Low/Med/High RR. By default = mort_o3_gbd2016_med

Damage_vsl_range

Select the VSL to calculate the damages (Damage_vsl_med, Damage_vsl_low, or Damage_vsl_high)

ssp

Set the ssp narrative associated to the GCAM scenario. c("SSP1","SSP2","SSP3","SSP4","SSP5"). By default is SSP2

queries

Name of the GCAM query file. The file by default includes the queries required to run rfasst

saveOutput

Writes the emission files.By default=T

map

Produce the maps. By default=F

anim

If set to T, produces multi-year animations. By default=T

Value

Economic damages associated with mortality attributable to O3 (M6M) exposure for each TM5-FASST regions for all years (Million$2015). The list of countries that form each region and the full name of the region can be found in Table S2.2 in the TM5-FASST documentation paper: Van Dingenen, R., Dentener, F., Crippa, M., Leitao, J., Marmer, E., Rao, S., Solazzo, E. and Valentini, L., 2018.
